Bathroom grout was dirty, bed and pillows weren’t comfortable. Did not have microwave in room.

John, Feb 2018
Pros (+) The staff, especially Sam, a young business school student, was excellent and catered to our needs.
Cons (-) The temperature controls in the room we were in were hard to reach at over 6' on the wall. It was hard to see what was showing on the screen without climbing on the desk chair. The thermostat is not very intuitive since we thought we had set it at 72 degrees before going to bed and when we woke up it was 64 in the room.
